Yeah, I'm not saying you can't get cases done with it. I'm just saying that it's much easier and faster with a tool like PC-3000.

I haven't worked with DFL much at all to be honest. I've tried helping guys solve cases using MRT at times and I'm constantly frustrated. There's just so many things I can do in two seconds with PC-3000 that takes 20 steps to do in MRT.

I think that you can get away without PC-3000 for the majority of firmware fixes.

Big advantage of PC-3000 would be the support for the newer drives and firmware access / unlocking on modern drives like Seagate with locked terminal, etc ... Also ACE keeps PC-3000 updated most likely faster than other tools. Other tools most likely will check what PC-3000 do to update themselfs...

But if you are working with outdated drives or doing stuff like refurb used drives you can get awaye without PC-3000 as long as you do "avoid" the drives that your tools do not support....

Exactly mi amigos, India is not having influx of new series of drives. People are already disliking seagate slim (LM) drives here as they fail in weeks of purchase date.

we are back by atleast 7-10 years before the new drives or higher capacity drives shall kick in on a massive level after atleast 3-4 years ie at domestic level with each PC /laptop having the latest drive.so DFL is going to be in business for some time here.

We have a new function--Virtual Start(see details in our Forum or website), which is realeased by MRT first in 2017, MRT VS PC3000, MRT +1 score here:)

@data-medics Have you tried Virtual Start? By virtual start, you don't have to use tweezers to repair Seagate anymore. Fully recommend you to have a try, hoping that you will get a totally different experience than before, please refer to the details and viedos in our forum or website.
